Maybe eventually, but it's important to remember it was a proof of concept and that things like Damus not only put the cart before the horse but then whipped it to death.
It's a pattern of behavior with these attention seeking devs who have a history of doing stupid and unsustainable things and then whining about it "bankrupting me". The Jack bailout is the worst thing that has happened to nostr yet.

Care to elaborate? You mean when he funded nostr development? Was it $1M?
edit: Ah no, was $1M to Signal. 14 BTC for nostr.
But why do you think it's the worst thing? Development needs funding, no?
